Description

G13 2 168 270 A 1
SPECIFICATION Tool
The invention relates to a tool, particularly a tool 5for insertion in the tool receiver of a rotary percussive or rotary machine, such as a drilling machine.
According to one aspect of the invenfion there is 60 provided a tool for insertion in the tool receiver of a 10 rotary percussive or rotary machine, comprising a shank having a boundary surface including a curved portion and a flat portion, the arrangement being such that the flat portion is arranged to be 65 drivingly engaged by driving means of the tool 15 receiver in use, There may be two flat portions which may be substantially parallel and on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of the shank.
The or each flat portion may extend over a part 20 of the shank between the two ends thereof.
Alternatively, the or each flat portion may extend from the free end of the shank to a position intermediate the length thereof.
According to a second aspect of the invention 25 there is provided apparatus comprising a tool as hereinbefore defined and a rotary percussive or rotary machine, the tool being received by the tool receiver thereof with driving means of the tool receiver in driving engagement with the or each flat 30 portion for transferring rotary drive from the machine to the tool.
Tools embodying the invention are hereinafter described, by way of example, with reference to the 85 accompanying drawings.
Brief Description of Drawings
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the tool according to the invention; Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view on line A-A 40 of Fig. 1, showing two alternative constructions, and Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view through a shank of an alternative embodiment of tool 95 according to the invention.
Referring to the drawings, in which like parts are referred to by the reference numerals, the tool 1 shown is a drill which has a generally cylindrical shank 2 for insertion in a tool receiver or holder of 100 a rotary percussive or rotary machine such as a 50 drilling machine (not shown). The shank 2 has a curved surface portion 3 and a flat surface portion 4 of rectangular configuration, the flat surface portion 4 lying between the ends of the shank (Fig. 2).
Fig. 3 shows an alternative construction in which there are two flat portions 4 and 5 lying on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of the shank.
When the shank 1 is inserted in a tool receiver of a rotary percussive machine (not shown), driving elements thereof engage and act on the or each flat surface 4 and/or 5 to provide driving torque to the tool, which is thereby rotated.
This construction provides in both embodiments a relatively simple yet efficient arrangement which does not require precision grinding or milling of splines, grooves etc. and allows a direct driving contact between the tool and driving elements of the tool receiver on insertion of the tool in the receiver.
The shank 1 may include grooves (not shown) for receiving retaining elements of the receiver.

Claims (7)

1. A tool for insertion in the tool receiver of a rotary percussive or rotary machine, comprising a shank having a boundary surface including a curved portion and a flat portion, the arrangement being such that the flat portion is arranged to be drivingly engaged by driving means of the tool receiver in use.
2. A tool according to Claim 1, in which there are two flat portions which are substantially parallel and on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of the shank.
3. A tool according to Claim 1 or Claim 2, the or each flat portion extending over a part of the shank between the two ends thereof.
4. A tool according to Claim 1 or Claim 2, the or each flat portion extending from the free end of the shank to a position intermediate the length thereof.
5. A tool according to any preceding Claim, the or each flat portion being rectangular in configuration.
6. A tool for insertion in the tool receiver of a rotary percussive or rotary machine, substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
7. Apparatus comprising a tool according to any preceding Claim, and a rotary percussive or rotary machine, the tool being received by the tool receiver thereof with driving means of the tool receiver in driving engagement with the or each flat portion for transferring rotary drive from the machine to the tool.
